IQNA

TEHRAN (IQNA) – Smartphone apps are now an intrinsic part of our daily life. Anything you do, you can do more efficiently using an app. This ease in performing day to day activities drives more people towards smartphones each day. And with the increase in mobile user base, more apps are developed to cater to the needs of new users.

Currently, various apps in the market are catering to the
needs of Muslims. All these apps aim to assist Muslims in practicing their
religious duties on the go. These apps let you find prayer timings, read Quran
with Tafseer, and find Qibla direction, no matter where you are.

A variety of smartphone apps have been developed to aid the
Muslim community in reading and memorizing Quran. However, there is a lack of
apps focusing on building a habit of regular Quran reading or promoting the
community reading of Quran among Muslims.

QforQuran is a platform with the aim to fill this gap and
bring the Muslim community together through Quran. QforQuran, according to its
developers, is the world’s first habit building, community driven Quran reading
app. The app was launched in 2016 for both Android and iOS users. After
receiving much appreciation from the Muslim community for its novel features,
QforQuran is all set to launch its web application this Ramadan.

QforQuran brings the beautiful but, sadly, now less
prevalent Muslim concept of Quran Khwani to your smartphones. Users can create
Quran recitation events with a few clicks and invite their-their loved ones to
read Quran with them. Users can contribute in completing Quran, no matter where
they live. The Quran reading app uses learning and gaming techniques that
encourage users to read Quran every day and helps in developing a habit. Some key
features of the application include:

With QforQuran, you are not just reading the Quran alone but
are always contributing in completing Quran with the community. By reading 10
ayahs each day, users can contribute in completing up to 1000 Qurans.

QforQuran helps users develop a Quran reading habit by
allowing them to read Quran at their own pace. Users enter the amount of time
they are willing to give to Quran reading each day. Users are then
automatically assigned tasks according to their time preference. There is a
deadline for each task. Users only read 5-10 minutes of Quran daily. Gradually,
this becomes a routine, and users start reading Quran more efficiently and
giving it more time.

QforQuran enables you to view your personal progress as well
as the community’s progress. Personal progress view enables the user to see the
number of ayahs, and his/her contribution to Quran reading. Whereas the home
view enables a user to view the number of verses read, the number of users in
the community, and the number of Qurans completed.
